For coconut layer, combine 1/2 can milk and 1 1/2 cups sugar in a saucepan. Bring
to a boil. Remove from heat, add marshmallows, and stir until melted. Stir in coconut. Pour over cake.
For chocolate layer, add remaining milk and sugar. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add butter and chocolate chips. Stir until melted. Add almonds. Allow mixture to set for a few minutes until it hardens. Stir and spread over first layer. Chill.
